Awesome! The lines will definitely help with panel deflection in strong wind, it’s the only really vulnerable part of the tent due to the large side. I went with the Lawson as it virtually matches the original lines and looks factory. 👍🏻

Good stuff and an interesting tent, but not sure I fancy trying one myself but hope you get on great with it. Note that the magnet clips looks like an idea taken from Tarptent that they have used it for years on tents such as the Notch Li. Be aware that depending on strength of magnet and where the tent is packed it can affect your compass if you use one as I found after testing with my old Notch tent with that tieback setup.
@itsmescottp
2 жыл бұрын
Yeah it’s very similar to TT system, just stronger magnets. I’ve looked a TT shelters loads over the years but I’ve never been sold on the pitchloc end design. At the price point, I don’t think anything currently in the market comes close, looking forward to using. 👍🏻

Cheap to buy $240 but time it ends up in UK add another £80 probably. It absolutely pisses on my tiny little no room Terra Nova Laser Pulse 1 which is over £500 ..no one told me in reviews that it absorbs water like a sponge and takes ages to dry out so every day I was carring another half kilo in weight.The Durston does NOT absorb water ! why don t they all make them like that

My xmid 2 with solid inner has been kicking about Chicago for a few days. Waiting for it to wing its way across the Atlantic to Ireland. Hopefully I will have it for a trip in the next 3 weeks. I prefer the colour on the vz and the wait for the solid inner was worth it. By wait, I mean the 3 attempts I made to get an x-mid. Was so happy last month to get one. Now just to follow the tracking and pay customs.
